I tried building memchunkhax2 just to try and see if it worked for me out of curiosity, and ctrulib spit out tons of errors. (Yes, I did update to the latest version)
Does someone have an already built memchunkhax2 that I could use?

I have one, but I don't know if I could give it.

Just dreaming now, but would be possible for some devs to explain detailed info on the inner workings of memchunkhax2 after it's proper release? A more technical post, for security enthusiasts and coders like me. It would be very instructive (Like the conference days ago).

I can actually understand what's the code doing, but only in surface. I lack the inner 3ds wisdom and some foresight...

As it been tested on 10.3.0-28E ?
i can check if any want :)

I know that doing nothing etc it just to "help" in random crash or specific one process
I just don't have much idea how to compile it yet
Why try?

It's not stable, and just achieves kernel exploitation.

It will work on any region, 10.3-. Be patient.

Quick question, what does memchunkhax2 do except being able to downgrade?
It gives Kernel11, so you could use NTR CFW with it

It doesn't brick any 3DS.

I think they will.

This does not access the sysNAND, so there's no chance of bricking your system. You need to actually write to your system to break it, otherwise this really does nothing, other than spit out errors.

It was explained in a complicated way, but the ARM11 memory is mapped to the FCRAM, basically you wait until it has verified the memory, then after it's verified and before it's used you overwrite it to make it jump somewhere else, you set that area up and from there you can gain code execution (at least that's what I understand from it)

Hello :D

I tried 4 times on 9.9.0-26E (2DS)

1) Stop at: Post-overwrite control result: 0xFFFFFFFF
2) Stop at: Post-overwrite control result: 0xFFFFFFFF
3) Stop at: Release it
4) Release it! BOOM

Wow, you're lucky, congratulations, my 9.0 3DS keep being stuck at "Release it" :)
